Our Garden lol its okay I guess, not the best though….

by

Well we planted several things, months ago and just recently.  Well the stuff Leo and I planted in the little planters the sun killed them, it was supposed to be as hot as them packages probably figured lol so they are all gone and dead.  Hubby and Leo planted some a few weeks back we got some good little plants growing now.  I got this brainiac idea about carrots I had some carrots for about 2 weeks, which really isnt long for them.  I was shocked when I seen how green the ends looked and started growing little sprouts from the part that grows just above the dirt.  So I told hubby plant these ohh they also had what looked like roots coming right out of the carrot itself.  He planted them and wow they are growing on top the ground amazingly I just hope they produce more carrots lmao I dont know if it will or not honestly, nor have I searched it, maybe I will now :)

So here are some pictures I just took yesterday.

Time4Learning We love this site!!! If you have kids you should join! #Time4Learning

I wanted to share the sites that we are using for our son.  This is just 2 of them, most are free that we use but sometimes, you just need that little extra.  So my sweet boy is having trouble remembering his sounds no matter how many times we tried to say them every day or just watch videos related, etc… just stuff to try to help him remember.  So when we joined this first site, I was able to chose different levels of grade for different subjects, which was perfect he’s good at math, science and he just started social studies yesterday.  Now he’s doing great at his language arts/reading
(Learning Activities completed 59 from 5/14/12 to 6/14/12 scored 85% )!! I honestly couldn’t be more happy!!

This site offers you a great option for records keeping.  I download a month to month PDF file for record keeping, it shows how many tests taken with average score, how many quiz’s taken with scores and how many chapters completed with scores for each subject on all of them details.  They also give you a letter of enrollment you have to download and print yourself.  If you want to see a sample of these PDF files visit my sons site, I have a few of his listed there (little-leo.com).  The other site also has decent record keeping they are also listed on my sons site.

Lastly the other added bonus of using T4L and SC are that Time4Learning.com has an awesome referral program that earns you $25 for each person you refer!  If you like T4L then write an honest review and they will send you a $25 visa gift card like shown in the picture.  ( I did edit out the card number )  Plus when you sign up for Time4Learning.com you can choose free gift offer of 1 year free atSpellingCity.com

DH cracks me up sometimes

by

I’m sitting in my bedroom in bed it is 9:32pm, he well is just not in the room but is reading the paper to me from his location in the house. He is yelling a bit for me to hear him and when he is doing this his voice sometimes cracks like a teenagers does. I just laugh to myself cause its funny and it makes me think of his son and how his will and the other one has and probably still is.

I’m a Proud Mama are you?

I’m a Proud Mama are you?

I am because I have this sweet kid who can be a bit bossy, but still knows his place.  He loves me so much I know I’m his favorite (shhhhh dont tell daddy), I’m here day in and out spending time and teaching, playing and just listening and watching.

He really enjoys being homeschooled, I think our whole family likes the idea.  My little man learns as the days go by, sometimes faster than others and sometimes not so much.

He loves to cook and enjoys baking with me as well, as long as I’m not in a rush then he gets to do lots of stuff.  He cracks eggs, measures stuff, cuts sticks of butter and sifts but never remembers that word sift.  He has even made his own entire lasagna with just a little coaching you could say, just reminding him not to much cheese for each layer, you know so there is enough.

One of his favorite things to do is play with fondant and decorate cupcakes or a cake.  We call fondant our candy play-doh and its true that’s basically what it is.  He has made full sets of angry birds for a Easter cake we just set on a plate around some little cakes we bought from Swiss colony.

He says he wants to work in a taco bell, I explained if you want to work in the restaurant business you should run your own, that you can still cook to.  He likes that idea he wants to be a fry cook he says and a pastry chef, I just love that.  I also love cooking, baking and just making things in the kitchen that are edible.

I love that he enjoys watching the Foodnetwork channel and he loves Alton Brown, Diners, Drive ins & Dives, Paula Deene and some of the Cupcake Wars, Chopped, Food Network Challenge, etc..

All and all he just makes me proud, I’m proud to be his Mama and he’s little Sweetie Pie!!
